If you are one of the students who believes you can learn a language whilst ignoring its script I must disappoint you. You can never really understand a...
read moreLearning Greek in London – evening courses or a private tutor?
Many Greek schools in London run weekend or evening courses- but does classroom based language tuition really work? No, in my opinion it doesn’t. Many students come to us after having first enrolled for a Greek course in one of the many Greek schools and language centres across London.
